Microsoft almost always toots its own horn when it has a successful product or service. For those products and services that don't achieve their goals, though, Microsoft often has a quiet demise on tap, according to a new study released this week.
One point that jumps out of the report, which was written by Matt Rosoff, vice president of consumer products and corporate news at Directions on Microsoft, is that Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) has eliminated, phased out, spun off, outsourced, or sold off more than a dozen products and services just since October. The report is titled "How Microsoft Phases Out Products."
